1/2 A Year Old

Dylan turned 6 Months old this week. Where does the time go?

We started giving Dylan a sippy cup with apple juice, he loved it!!!! He is also drinking bottles a little my himself!!!

Exciting Week

It has been quit the week for us!! Dylan went to the doctors on Thursday for a checkup and we found that Dylan weighs 19 lbs. Yes, we are almost ready for a new car seat. He is becoming a little too heavy for us to be carrying him around.

We also found that 2 of Dylans' bottom teeth came in on Saturday!!! That is very exciting news!! We have been giving lots of new 1st foods. So far Dylans' favorite foods are sweet potatoes, pears and oatmeal!! We will be starting to bring some food to daycare next week. He has been doing so well with the food, i really think he is looking foward to eating more and drinking less bottles!!

I won't be long before Dylan is sitting up on his own. Right now he can sit up with a couple of pillows around him.

SpringTime Walks

It was in the 50's yesterday, so we took Dylan for a nice long walk. We hope that it continues to stay warm so that we can continue to be outside more. Dylans' teacher also took his class out for two walks today, she said theyall had a fun time. Dylan was awake for one but then fell asleep on the second walk. People say that fresh air will make a little one sleepy.

BREAKING NEWS!!!

I put Dylan on his Tummy yesterday and he rolled over!!! YEAH

He can't roll on to his tummy yet but i know it won't be long.

I downloaded the Kodak Easy Share software yesterday from my new digital picture frame and there are so many cool ways to change your pictures. The one below is supposed to look like a coloring book. I thought it was pretty cool!

4 Month Checkup

Dyan went for his 4 month checkup on Monday and he is a very healthy boy. He weighs 17 pounds and is 26 inches long. He is a big boy and is growing everyday. We were on vacation this week which was much needed but weren't able to do much. We all came down with the stomach bug in the beginning of the week and were stuck in bed for a couple of days. We are all feeling much better now and we are trying to get out and enjoy the nice weather. It has been in the 50's here the last couple of days. I can't wait for spring to come!!!!!

Dylan is also teething like crazy, he prefers to chew on his hands versus anything else i've tried to give him. Oh he also likes to chew on baby carrots, i think that is is just really cold and it feels good on his gums!!!!

Here are a few pictures of Dylan that I took last week. He is getting to be such a little man!! We don't know how much we will be posting because our schedule is so hectic now. I will try to post pictures as much as I can.

Dylan has been eating a little cereal this week with a little bit of bananas in it. He seems to be liking it ok. He is still waking up once at night to eat, i was hoping that he would start to sleep the whole night soon. Its hard for me to get through the days because i'm starting to feel sleep deprived. Its a good thing that there is a starbucks near by :) Dylan is doing really well at Daycare, he has made a lot of friends and really likes his teachers. He was having trouble sleeping at first but now he is more comfortable and used to other babies crying.

DYLAN TURNS 3 MONTHS OLD

It has been a while since we last posted. I have been back to work for 3 weeks now and at first it was really difficult. Dylan is doing really well at daycare, i believe that he likes it alot. He doesn't seem to sleep very well there because all the other kids wake him up. When he gets home at night, he is exhausted and basically wants to go to sleep. He is such a happy little guy though and is growing so fast. i can't believe it has been three months already.

My biggest problem right now is trying to find fast and easy meals to make for dinner.

I was wondering if any of you have any suggestions or easy recipes that would help make it easy on me at night?

Here are a few pictures of him that was taken last week. He is already sitting up with the support of the bumpo!! He is not sure of it yet, but he is really strong already. He always wants to be in a sitting position.
